The main symptoms are bone fracture appearance of swelling , deformity , impaired function , mobility for bone , bone crepitus , pain.

In small ruminants favorable prognosis observed in fractures of the phalanges , metacarpal and plyustevoy bones and iliac and ischial tuberosity . When complete femur , tibia and humerus bones of animals culled . First aid is to create peace of injured individuals , stop bleeding , applying the immobilizing bandages.

In closed fractures using locking immobilizing bandage ( bus or plaster ) providing stillness and quiet damaged site for pain , prevent the development of shock and infection.
